It's off, and Michael Dunlops filthy animal style is topping all the practice sheets.

See Hicky's clocked 200 mph down Sulby Straight. At that speed he'd miss half of the bumps!!

Fuck me.
I remember when that was broken in Motogp. On a real road is insane.

That new BMW engine is a beast. I'm guessing he'll have to figure out new braking markers

Still think Hicky’s keeping his powder dry

120 mph average on a sidecar. Jesus, that is fucking going some. The footage of the Birchalls raking through Milltown flat out with the front wheel airborne was just plain mental.

Seems like Hickman's powder had been kept in the woodshed. Post race he said a bit of everything was wrong with the bike including brakes.
Dunlop rampage continues.

Dunlop’s rampage stops at 25. Hickman unleashes his powder.
Fantastic lap by PH in superstock race 2 to raise the outright lap record over 136 Same plaudits to MD for his 130 lap in supersports race 2
Big shock in senior was Harrison not Dunlop challenging Hicky. Couldn’t fathom what he was saying post race as he was talking with a tube in his mouth.
Thought that Brookes performed well too after a 5 year layoff

The place is bonkers really. 136 is mental. I remember when Foggy doing 123 was being touted as something that would last the ages. The again the bikes were a bit more of handful and also only kicking out about 160hp at best.
Thought Todd may go better but it never really happened for him.

There has to eventually be a saturation point mostly due to the physical contours of the TT course. Fuck knows what speed that will be but sure as shite sticks to bog roll it will continue to increase. We have to enjoy the spectacle cos eventually i reckon the pc polis will stop the thing and that will be tragic.

I have binged the NW200 and TT this week. Tremendous coverage.
Funny how there are only three competitive riders in the biggies though.
I've worked out why I like Harrison; he looks like he might be a descendant of Stan Laurel.

TT has always been a bit like that. Always 2 or 3 that seem a lot faster.
